# /etc/login.defs - Configuration control definitions for the login package.
#
# Three items must be defined: MAIL_DIR, ENV_SUPATH, and ENV_PATH.
# If unspecified, some arbitrary (and possibly incorrect) value will
# be assumed. All other items are optional - if not specified then
# the described action or option will be inhibited.
#
# Comment lines (lines beginning with "#") and blank lines are ignored.
#
# Modified for Linux. --marekm
# REQUIRED for useradd/userdel/usermod
# Directory where mailboxes reside, _or_ name of file, relative to the
# home directory. If you _do_ define MAIL_DIR and MAIL_FILE,
# MAIL_DIR takes precedence.
#
# Essentially:
# - MAIL_DIR defines the location of users mail spool files
# (for mbox use) by appending the username to MAIL_DIR as defined
# below.
# - MAIL_FILE defines the location of the users mail spool files as the
# fully-qualified filename obtained by prepending the user home
# directory before $MAIL_FILE
#
# NOTE: This is no more used for setting up users MAIL environment variable
# which is, starting from shadow 4.0.12-1 in Debian, entirely the
# job of the pam_mail PAM modules
# See default PAM configuration files provided for
# login, su, etc.
#
# This is a temporary situation: setting these variables will soon
# move to /etc/default/useradd and the variables will then be
# no more supported
MAIL_DIR /var/mail
#MAIL_FILE .mail
#
# Enable logging and display of /var/log/faillog login failure info.
# This option conflicts with the pam_tally PAM module.
#
FAILLOG_ENAB yes
#
# Enable display of unknown usernames when login failures are recorded.
#
# WARNING: Unknown usernames may become world readable.
# See #290803 and #298773 for details about how this could become a security
# concern
LOG_UNKFAIL_ENAB no
#
# Enable logging of successful logins
#
LOG_OK_LOGINS no
#
# Enable "syslog" logging of su activity - in addition to sulog file logging.
# SYSLOG_SG_ENAB does the same for newgrp and sg.
#
SYSLOG_SU_ENAB yes
SYSLOG_SG_ENAB yes
#
# If defined, all su activity is logged to this file.
#
#SULOG_FILE /var/log/sulog
#
# If defined, file which maps tty line to TERM environment parameter.
# Each line of the file is in a format something like "vt100 tty01".
#
#TTYTYPE_FILE /etc/ttytype
#
# If defined, login failures will be logged here in a utmp format
# last, when invoked as lastb, will read /var/log/btmp, so...
#
FTMP_FILE /var/log/btmp
#
# If defined, the command name to display when running "su -". For
# example, if this is defined as "su" then a "ps" will display the
# command is "-su". If not defined, then "ps" would display the
# name of the shell actually being run, e.g. something like "-sh".
#
SU_NAME su
#
# If defined, file which inhibits all the usual chatter during the login
# sequence. If a full pathname, then hushed mode will be enabled if the
# user's name or shell are found in the file. If not a full pathname, then
# hushed mode will be enabled if the file exists in the user's home directory.
#
HUSHLOGIN_FILE .hushlogin
#HUSHLOGIN_FILE /etc/hushlogins
#
# *REQUIRED* The default PATH settings, for superuser and normal users.
#
# (they are minimal, add the rest in the shell startup files)
ENV_SUPATH PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11
ENV_PATH PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
#
# Terminal permissions
#
# TTYGROUP Login tty will be assigned this group ownership.
# TTYPERM Login tty will be set to this permission.
#
# If you have a "write" program which is "setgid" to a special group
# which owns the terminals, define TTYGROUP to the group number and
# TTYPERM to 0620. Otherwise leave TTYGROUP commented out and assign
# TTYPERM to either 622 or 600.
#
# In Debian /usr/bin/bsd-write or similar programs are setgid tty
# However, the default and recommended value for TTYPERM is still 0600
# to not allow anyone to write to anyone else console or terminal
# Users can still allow other people to write them by issuing
# the "mesg y" command.
TTYGROUP tty
TTYPERM 0600
#
# Login configuration initializations:
#
# ERASECHAR Terminal ERASE character ('\010' = backspace).
# KILLCHAR Terminal KILL character ('\025' = CTRL/U).
# UMASK Default "umask" value.
#
# The ERASECHAR and KILLCHAR are used only on System V machines.
#
# UMASK usage is discouraged because it catches only some classes of user
# entries to system, in fact only those made through login(1), while setting
# umask in shell rc file will catch also logins through su, cron, ssh etc.
#
# At the same time, using shell rc to set umask won't catch entries which use
# non-shell executables in place of login shell, like /usr/sbin/pppd for "ppp"
# user and alike.
#
# Therefore the use of pam_umask is recommended (Debian package libpam-umask)
# as the solution which catches all these cases on PAM-enabled systems.
#
# This avoids the confusion created by having the umask set
# in two different places -- in login.defs and shell rc files (i.e.
# /etc/profile).
#
# For discussion, see #314539 and #248150 as well as the thread starting at
# http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/06/msg01598.html
#
# Prefix these values with "0" to get octal, "0x" to get hexadecimal.
#
ERASECHAR 0177
KILLCHAR 025
# 022 is the "historical" value in Debian for UMASK when it was used
# 027, or even 077, could be considered better for privacy
# There is no One True Answer here : each sysadmin must make up his/her
# mind.
#UMASK 022
#
# Password aging controls:
#
# PASS_MAX_DAYS Maximum number of days a password may be used.
# PASS_MIN_DAYS Minimum number of days allowed between password changes.
# PASS_WARN_AGE Number of days warning given before a password expires.
#
PASS_MAX_DAYS 99999
PASS_MIN_DAYS 0
PASS_WARN_AGE 7
#
# Min/max values for automatic uid selection in useradd
#
UID_MIN 1000

# Min/max values for automatic gid selection in groupadd
#
GID_MIN 100
GID_MAX 60000
#
# Max number of login retries if password is bad. This will most likely be
# overriden by PAM, since the default pam_unix module has it's own built
# in of 3 retries. However, this is a safe fallback in case you are using
# an authentication module that does not enforce PAM_MAXTRIES.
#
LOGIN_RETRIES 5
#
# Max time in seconds for login
#
LOGIN_TIMEOUT 60
#
# Which fields may be changed by regular users using chfn - use
# any combination of letters "frwh" (full name, room number, work
# phone, home phone). If not defined, no changes are allowed.
# For backward compatibility, "yes" = "rwh" and "no" = "frwh".
#
CHFN_RESTRICT rwh
#
# Should login be allowed if we can't cd to the home directory?
# Default in no.
#
DEFAULT_HOME yes
#
# If defined, this command is run when removing a user.
# It should remove any at/cron/print jobs etc. owned by
# the user to be removed (passed as the first argument).
#
#USERDEL_CMD /usr/sbin/userdel_local
#
# This enables userdel to remove user groups if no members exist.
#
# Other former uses of this variable such as setting the umask when
# user==primary group are not used in PAM environments, thus in Debian
#
USERGROUPS_ENAB yes
#
# Instead of the real user shell, the program specified by this parameter
# will be launched, although its visible name (argv[0]) will be the shell's.
# The program may do whatever it wants (logging, additional authentification,
# banner, ...) before running the actual shell.
#
# FAKE_SHELL /bin/fakeshell
#
# If defined, either full pathname of a file containing device names or
# a ":" delimited list of device names. Root logins will be allowed only
# upon these devices.
#
# This variable is used by login and su.
#
#CONSOLE /etc/consoles
#CONSOLE console:tty01:tty02:tty03:tty04
#
# List of groups to add to the user's supplementary group set
# when logging in on the console (as determined by the CONSOLE
# setting). Default is none.
#
# Use with caution - it is possible for users to gain permanent
# access to these groups, even when not logged in on the console.
# How to do it is left as an exercise for the reader...
#
# This variable is used by login and su.
#
#CONSOLE_GROUPS floppy:audio:cdrom
#
# Only works if compiled with MD5_CRYPT defined:
# If set to "yes", new passwords will be encrypted using the MD5-based
# algorithm compatible with the one used by recent releases of FreeBSD.
# It supports passwords of unlimited length and longer salt strings.
# Set to "no" if you need to copy encrypted passwords to other systems
# which don't understand the new algorithm. Default is "no".
#
# This variable is used by chpasswd, gpasswd and newusers.
